I love this series of blog posts, it all started a year or two ago when I took the family to Warwick Castle which was a brilliant day out and I thought I would create a bunch of activities to go along with it. Since then I have also covered Ancient Egypt too so this is our third historical adventure.

This week I'm going to delve into some really cool Pokemon Party Decorations, then we have two more weeks of pure Pokemon games and crafts for the kids. When you put all of these blog posts together you'll be ready to make the most awesome Pokemon Party ever!

love being inspired and I took loads of inspiration from this film and that old school circus vibe. I like to take inspiration and run with and create something new and unique. Here I am a few years back presenting my take on spinning plates, this gets a brilliant reaction at parties.

Hello and welcome to another new theme here at Wonder Kids, make sure you take a couple of minutes to try some of the ideas we have linked to below or try using the search bar for finding brilliant activities you can use at home or at a birthday party.

It's our final exploration into space and we are going to look into some great birthday party decorations, cakes and free printables this week. Lets start at the beginning of planning a party with some free Party invitations.

Hello and Welcome to our final journey with Unicorns. This time we are going to share some great Party ideas, when you combine these with all of our other Unicorn fun you will be able to put together an amazing birthday party.

I’m loving this project Disney is working on to take all of their animated classics and turn them into live action films. I think it started with Cinderella which was ok, Beauty and the Beast was brilliant, Dumbo was umm ok and when I first saw the initial teaser for the new live action Aladdin

We’ve reached the final week of our music fun. This week we are going to have some fun putting together a Music Festival Kids Party and I’ll show you how to make your own Maracas. Often overlooked as a child's toy these maracas are in so many songs and add a very odd rhythm to music, a little like reggae music where you get that extra little beat. Here is a good example of some music with Maracas

We're back with another great exploration of this month's theme. This week I have been looking into running a complete Knights Party. Lets kick off with some great party invitations, these are free to download and use as you need them.

Lets kick off with your Star Wars name, this is a great thing to keep the kids busy as they arrive, find out there name then let them design a name badge with their name on it. This can just be some printer labels from a stationary shop. That can then be the kids name for the whole party. Have it on a phone/tablet or click on it to print it out.

Hello and welcome to our final week of Finding Nemo/Dory fun. This week I am going to show you some really simply and cool ideas for decorations. Now these could be used for a themed birthday party or a really cool movie marathon of both the films. They also work for any Under the Sea or Little Mermaid party too.

We are going to try something new now on Wonder Kids, we are going to create a series of posts looking back in time at some of the most interesting historical civilisations and periods. To kick off we are going with the Ancient Egyptians.

To round off the new Minions Re-Mixed posts I have included here some great simple Birthday Party additions to really take a party to a new level. First check out this table deco, minions are a great theme for birthday parties because almost everything is available in both yellow and blue and the whole party is easy to bring together under a great bright theme.

This is always a great thing to talk to your child about, they are either going to say they only want three friends or a hundred, I don't think there is going to be much middle ground. Many entertainers impose limits on the number of children you can have so that is something to bear in mind if you are planning on having a professional entertainer at the party.

I did cover Marvel way back in 2015, back when this was just little one page blog over at Wayne-wonder.com but I think with the passing of Stan Lee and now that we have so many more great characters to have fun with it’s time to delve deeper and expand on what we had already.

Cowabunga Dude’s it’s our last foray into the mutagenic world of ninja turtles. I wonder if anyone reading this remember them being called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles? Let me know in the comments if you do. In the U.K in the late 80’s early 90’s our censors thought the word “ninja” was a little too aggressive so we had hero’s instead. It’s all changed now of course.

The time has come folks for us to start a brand new theme, My Disney review is finished and boy it was a mammoth job reviewing Disneyland Paris, you can read it here. I am really trying to take my time going through Disney Princess's, well technically lets get it straight Moana is NOT a princess she is the daughter of a chief!

Descendants is brilliant, I love it, I think the concept is brilliant. It takes some of the worst villains from Disney, namely Jaffar, Cruella, The Evil Queen and worst of all Maleficent! who have now all had children of their own attending high school with the children from the Disney prince’s and princess’s.
